CHARLIE ROSE: Chaos in Congress  as House Democrats

stage an all-night sit-in to push for a vote on gun control.

This was dramatic, like nothing we have ever seen before.

This historic protest that lasted for more than 24 hours...

Yes. It turns out the best way to get something done

But jokes aside, what happened yesterday was unprecedented.

House Democrats, so frustrated with their inability

to even get a vote on two gun reform bills, uh,

including one supported by 90% of the population,

staged a sit-in of a magnitude unseen in modern history.

that they couldn't have a little fun while they were doing it.

JONATHAN KARL: It went on  throughout the night,

WOMAN: Lawmakers bringing  in pizza, late night snacks,

cell phone chargers,  even blankets and pillows

MAN: Representative Cleaver  of Missouri,

he had a large pink and white  striped pillow

and he said that he was  prepared to spend the night.

Opening night tickets for Star Wars: Episode VII--

(normal voice): Now, for me, uh, the biggest winner

because, you see, a big part of the story

is that the Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan,

which meant the world couldn't see the Democrats' protest.

But it seems Paul Ryan forgot what year it is.

There are no cameras inside and there are no microphones

because the House is not officially in session,

MAN: Members of Congress  are capturing live video

on Periscope  and other social media outlets

is actually broadcasting  those Periscope streams.

I haven't seen old and young work that well together
